Bella Vita Animal Chiropractic Care - Durham, NC
At Bella Vita Chiropractic, I am dedicated to providing comprehensive chiropractic care tailored to your beloved pets—whether they are furry companions or gentle giants. As a licensed chiropractor with a Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) degree and a proud member of the American Veterinary Chiropractic Association (AVCA), I specialize in delivering safe and effective treatments for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, goats, horses, and even rabbits. With several years of experience, I have helped countless pets improve their mobility, reduce pain, and enhance their overall well-being.
Understanding that not all pets can travel, I offer both in-office care at my clinic located at 5501 Fortunes Ridge Dr. Ste L, Durham, NC 27713, and convenient mobile services within a 25-mile radius for large animals. My goal is to make chiropractic care accessible and stress-free for you and your pets. Whether your companion is a small rabbit weighing under 20 lbs or a large horse, I tailor my services to meet their unique needs, ensuring that each session is both comfortable and effective. Please note that a travel fee will apply based on mileage for mobile sessions and are limited to large animals only.
Ready to give your pet the care they deserve? Don't hesitate to reach out to me today to schedule an appointment. I kindly ask for 24 hours' notice for any cancellations to ensure I can accommodate all my furry clients.

My cat was limping when she would first get up and by the time I had made an appointment, and went in (over a week or two time frame) she had seemed to recover. I took her in anyway. Dr Val was able to locate a few points that needed adjusted on her. My cat is very shy and does not tend to warm up quickly to strangers. After her adjustment she was super relaxed and even snuggled into Dr. Val. It's like she knew Dr. Val was the reason she felt better.....and that was the only way she knew how to say thank you. Also, the girls at the front desk were super sweet! Can't forget that part!!!
- Cassie GWe LOVE Dr. Val!! She's very professional and passionate about chiropractic care. What is special about Dr. Val is that she is a great doctor for EVERYONE in the family. She helped my fiancé with his lower back issues and she took care of my dog and cat! How cool!? A doctor who treats the entire family!?!? It was amazing to see their lives change. My 10 year old lab has a hard time with his hips. After a few adjustments, he could be found sleeping on every couch & bed in sight! It felt so good to see him happy again! I would recommend Dr. Val to everyone who is ready to start living a greater life! :)
- Patrice EMy chihuahua Boots, 14yrs old suffers from IVDD.. he has been coming to Dr. Valentina for around 3 months or so and I must say she is amazing at what she does! His hind legs were uneven and now back more even and aligned. Also his back had started having a hunch, but now back straight! Thankyou so much, Boots is much happier now. Very grateful. Highly recommend her for chiropractic needs.
- Jada SDr. Val does it all! Dr. Valentina is a great option for both human and animal chiropractic care. My horse, my dog and I all get seen by her regularly to keep us feeling our best. Myself- Valentina always finds right where it hurts without me having to tell her. She is gentle with her adjustments and very knowledgeable about exercises to help correct the underlying issues. Dog- My dog lost her right back leg about 2 years ago. I take her to Dr. Val regularly to help keep her pain free and moving well. Tri-paws tend to develop back issues from the lack of stability/ support. Dr. Val's adjustments decrease the development of spinal curvature that happens over time when a hind limb is lost. She also makes sure the hip/ should/ leg joints are all looking good as they get extra wear and tear. Horse- Dr. Val adjusts my horse Finn once a month as regular preventative maintenance. He loves it and relaxes into her adjustments beautifully. She helped him recover from a rotational fall this past spring and made time to come out every 2 weeks. He is back to work now without pain and still gets regular adjustments. I can immediately feel a difference after he has been adjusted. Dr. Val knows what she's doing and often echoes what my vet says without collaboration.
- Gina RDr. Val and Dr. Chris are amazing! Dr. Val has been to my farm many times to adjust all my animals. She has helped make my older retired Morgan gelding more comfortable and I've seen huge improvements in my other 6 animals from regular care. Dr. Valentina didn't even blink an eye when I acquired a pig and she jumped right into the challenge of helping get her spine all squared away and she is now running all over the yard and playing in the dirt just like a little piggy should be. Dr. Chris has come to help and handle the animals as well. They both are professional and incredibly knowledgeable. I highly recommend them both for all your chiropractic needs for yourself or any of the pets you may have!
